The proteus motors are a Lehner knock off.
Never said that the suppo was a bad motor, said it wasn't a made by Turnigy like everything else they sell!
Pretty dumb to say Turningy makes great stuff when all they do is rebadge some quality merchandise and a lot of garbage and manufacture nothing.
I'll gladly put my Lehners, Castle and Neu motors up against anything out there and amp for amp will out perform it and outlast it.
I do own a few cheap motors including a t-600 1940kv version, and run them in sport setups, but they do not perform anywhere near the same as a high end motor.
Data logger does not lie, nor does the GPS. Same props back to back runs with the same brand of batteries, higher amp draws and temps along with a slower boat, means less efficient motor!
60 mph is pointless when everybody your up against is doing 70! I can get over 60 out of a used UL-1 motor in my H&M Drifter S with the old version UL-1 esc!
